Occasionally a tech writer has to get together with another tech writer to bitch about tech writer things. Things like, "How was I supposed to know that I had to document that pressing F2 in Workspace Mode would cause a fire if nobody bothered telling me?!"
In a totally unrelated note, I'm glad we had our office fire safety training last week.
Anyhoo.
When tech writers need to bitch, they need appropriate food. They need a food that will enhance their acid tongues. Foods like tomato and chickpea soup: red, acidic, hot. They then need to regain their strength with tasty sandwiches of roast beef and chicken with garlic aïoli and lime avocado sauce. Sometimes they need to cool down with a light, crisp salad.
In any case, once they're done their lunch, they have renewed energy and will postpone their plans to quit it all and move to Whitehorse, where they can sit with other writers in midnight sun cafés.
Instead, they'll go back to the office, make themselves an espresso and chase it with a chocolate chip cookie from the snack cupboard.
